This week’s guest has taken time out from Detroit’s open mike scene, rambling about the Detroit Tigers on Facebook, and making little-seen YouTube videos to join Joel and Corey on the show. Kirk is an original thinker with big plans in show business, and if he can survive 90 minutes here, he’ll probably do just fine in Hollywood. The guys discuss podcasting’s history and Joel and Corey’s place in it, why Corey is sick of horror movies and Kirk’s plans to move to L.A.. Also, the Hulk Hogan sex tape is driving Hulkamaniacs Corey and Kirk wild, but Joel, the show’s pro-wrestling insider, thinks the whole thing is a cheap stunt and offers up evidence why. Plus, Kevin James’s new movie makes no-one smile except Henry Winkler – who got paid for it.

Joel and Corey wish they were TV characters. No it’s not like they want they’re own show, it’s just that they want to live in a fabulous apartment with little or no income. That’s what happens on shows like FOX’s New Girl, which returned to TV screens this past week. The guys talk the new TV season, but there’s not much to like so far. Of the new shows, Corey isn’t buying the Mindy Kaling hype, while neither of them can figure out the appeal of Ben from Ben and Kate – even if Joel’s place looks like Ben would live there. Also, Eddie Murphy + Richard Pryor = violence, why The Little Rascals were the most racist thing ever, and Joel can’t take Halloween hysteria for another year. Plus, Corey goes to Europe and does it “wrong” – some unbelievable fan reaction to the last show!
